Plus, Kobos have the same performance as Kindle and have a high quality build. It's like a gaming console with CFW, it can do so much, that no firmware on any ereader comes even close. I installed KOReader and was blown away by its features.
KOBO AURA H2O EREADER CRACKED
It was a pretty good ereader, but the case cracked at one corner and it bothered me aesthetically (it was also creaking when applied pressure), so I shelled out for the expensive Forma. Plus, in my country we have a couple subscription services for books (think of "Netflix for books") which work better on other ereader brands (because they have native apps), so I switched to PocketBook InkPad 3. My first ereader was Kindle Keyboard, then the first Kindle Paperwhite, then Kindle Voyage (I think my second favorite ereader) and then I stepped outside of the Amazon ecosystem, because I'm not American and not from an English speaking country and Kindle considers me a 3rd class citizen of its ecosystem - no keyboard with my language, no UI in my language, often missing book covers for sideloaded books, etc. I dreamed of owning a Sony PRS-something.
:) I'm thinking about it because of a subscription service (kinda like Kindle Unlimited) that's available in my country.Ĭurrently Kobo Forma, which is the best ereader I ever used.
KOBO AURA H2O EREADER PRO
Good to hear! In that case it's an additional pro for getting an Era for myself. Yes, my experience with KOReader on PocketBook would be from around 2018, so it may be no longer valid. Koreader has been very stable on both Pocketbooks I tried so I guess your experience might also be older? I have not been affected because I'm using Kobo Forma which is not the newest device (although Kobo is still pushing firmware updates for it, I like it). Oh yeah, I heard about KOReader issues, actually. The newer Kobo's do have troubles on newer firmware with Koreader Do you know if it's possible to make ebooks from Dropbox show in the KOReader library view? That's one thing that doesn't work on Kobo out of the box, Dropbox files are separate from other files that are in the main memory of the reader. OK I stand corrected on the Dropbox thing then.
Because why not be able to listen to your own music while studying? This is the kind of feature that would make the Kindle Scribe more competitive with an iPad. I wish they would, and maybe add some mp3 player capabilities as well (FLAC and OGG support please).
KOBO AURA H2O EREADER ANDROID
The Android apps for Kindle and Audible are great on my phone and I don't see any Kindle device really matching the capabilities 1:1. I miss having cellular data too, as well as a speaker or headphone jack, but I prefer using my phone for audiobooks anyway.
Not being waterproof isn't a huge deal-breaker in my book, but I take the Scribe with me to remote parts of the world and it'd be nice to not worry about moisture/water damaging it in those environments. The Scribe really needs to be released with a version that's IPXX certified. The Scribe's writing capabilities are really cool and while I'm not the most active note-taker, I do appreciate the ability to hand-write notes (using the notebook function) on a device with such a good battery life. I think the weight of it makes it a bit cumbersome to read while in bed, or to write on without a surface to support it, but I really like the thing and the size of the screen has made it a good replacement for the Kindle DX Graphite I still have kicking around. I purchased a Kindle Scribe when it first came out.
